Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter softened to room temperature
- 0.25 cup runny honey
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Start by allowing your unsalted butter to come to room temperature. If short on time, cut the butter into small cubes to soften faster.
- In a medium mixing bowl, add the softened butter, runny honey, and ground cinnamon. Using a hand mixer or a sturdy spoon, beat the ingredients together until fully combined and smooth.
- Taste the cinnamon honey butter. Adjust sweetness by adding more honey or more cinnamon for a stronger spice flavor, then mix again.
- Serve immediately alongside warm rolls, toast, or pancakes. Alternatively, transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for later use.

Notes
Use high-quality butter and fresh cinnamon for best flavor. If honey is thick or crystallized, warm it gently before mixing. This butter keeps refrigerated up to two weeks or frozen up to three months. Optional variations include adding nutmeg, cloves, vanilla extract, flavored honey, or chopped nuts.
